Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
The article explicitly states that AI was used to generate hyperrealistic deepfake pornographic images and videos without consent, which constitutes a violation of rights and is illegal. The harm is realized and ongoing, affecting many victims. The AI system's use in creating and distributing this content directly led to the harm, qualifying this as an AI Incident under the framework's criteria for violations of human rights and harm to communities.[AI generated]
